Belgian Prime Minister Bart De Wever has pledged €1 billion in aid to Ukraine for 2025, with plans to continue this annually. Along with financial support, Belgium will supply fighter jets, including F-16s, reinforcing its commitment to Ukraine amid ongoing Russian aggression.
Belgian Prime Minister Bart De Wever has announced a new €1 billion aid package for Ukraine in 2025, with plans to provide the same amount annually throughout his term. The pledge, made during a visit to Kyiv with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, demonstrates Belgium’s ongoing support for Ukraine amid the ongoing conflict with Russia.
De Wever also reaffirmed Belgium’s commitment to supplying Ukraine with fighter jets, including two F-16s. Belgium will deliver two F-16 fighter planes this year as spare parts, and more will follow next year. However, the delivery of additional F-16s is contingent upon the arrival of Belgium’s F-35 jets, which have been delayed. Once the F-35s are delivered, the F-16s will be replaced.
The announcement highlights Belgium’s continued involvement in Ukraine’s defence and rebuilding efforts, underscoring the strategic importance of international support as the conflict enters its second year. With the promise of substantial financial aid and military assistance, Belgium is positioning itself as a key partner in Ukraine's fight against Russian aggression.
